If you are fetching it with "go get" then that's presumably because

cache) or anywhere else (then it goes into GOPATH).

If you are not fetching the project as part of a dependency, because
you want to work on it, modify it, etc, then you can clone it anywhere
outside GOPATH on your system and don't need to use "go get". One of
the use cases for go modules was to allow projects to reside
everywhere on the filesystem to allow legacy directory layouts to be
used when developing.

So do *not* use go get when manually cloning the project then I take it?
